Attributed to Sir Thomas Wyatt,[1] this poem was entered by H8. The speaker in this poem can find no remedy for his love and wastes away with sighs. Rebholz notes that this poem shares the refrain with "Duress of pains and grievous smart," another poem written by Wyatt and found in Trinity College Dublin MS D.2.7 (Blage MS) and the Folger manuscript; this indicates that "Comforte thy self my wofull herte" may be an earlier version of the poem.[2]
